Overview

Compostable and biodegradable bags designed for organisations that need a direct replacement for conventional plastic without compromising strength or hygiene. Our compostable grades comply with IS/ISO 17088 for industrial compostability, and we offer biodegradable alternatives for use-cases where composting infrastructure is limited. Suitable for retail shopping bags, food-waste collection, fresh-produce packing, and municipal wet-waste programs.

Product FAQs

What procurement teams ask about this product

  • Compostable grades use bio-based resins certified to IS/ISO 17088 — they are not conventional plastic and will fully break down in industrial composting conditions into water, CO₂, and biomass. We also offer biodegradable LDPE blends for scenarios where composting is not available; those are best treated as a transitional option.
